It's overcast and softly raining here. Forecast to rain for the next three days, hopefully a gentle rain. What the midwest farmers call a Lady rain.

I hope your rain is gentle too. It's so much better for the soil. Won't wash stuff away the way the hard rain does.

I appreciate your support more than you know.

If that's what you were going for, you nailed it.
Great pic.

I probably see cold because I went out on the porch a couple hours ago and checked it out, and yes it is. It's really lighting up the yard.

I just wanted to get a really good image. I want the moon's beauty to show.

It's chilly here too, and I felt that.

There's nothing quite like seeing it in person. Photos can be a good substitute.

And clouds can sure be a huge problem! So we wait for clear skies for the beauty to show.
